The Fabulous Terri Brush of Terri Brush Designs will be leading us through a two day workshop of Papier Mache and altered snow globe art, this coming September 19th and 20- too fun! You will have the opportunity to make a Halloween and Christmas themed globe, thank goodness because there is no way I could have chosen one over the other

I met Terri back when she came to San Diego to teach us all her fabulous soldered charms technique- I literally went home and soldered these two after learning the tricks of the trade from Terri- she made it look so easy

She also took the time to show me how to make soldered links- I love making these as it is super easy and you can take your aggression out will pounding the jewelry hammer on the silver wire;)

I made this with all the techniques I learned from Terri- the pendant is super thick to go along with the chunky links;)

Come and join in the fun- we would love to have you, just click on the snowglobe on the left for all the info
